Inter Milan are targeting Athletic Bilbao and Spain winger Nico Williams as their marquee summer signing, with the 2002-born sensation identified as the ideal profile to drive Cristian Chivu’s tactical evolution, but a significant sale must come first.
According to L’Interista, Inter view Williams as the player who best fits their planned switch to a 3-4-2-1 system.
In that shape, the Spain international would operate behind a single striker, a position that would showcase his dribbling, line-breaking ability and explosive pace to maximum effect.
Inter Must Sell To Finance Move For Bilbao Talent Williams
His arrival would carry a dual significance.
It would signal Inter’s ambition to compete at the very highest level in the coming seasons and simultaneously provide Chivu with the creative weapon his new system demands.
Inter have scouted Williams previously and Oaktree see him as the kind of marquee signing that delivers both sporting and commercial impact.
The challenge is financial.
Before making a serious move for the Bilbao forward, Inter must generate significant funds from the sale of a current first-team player.
Only then will the board feel comfortable backing Chivu with an investment of this scale.
The identity of that departing player remains the key variable but the dream, at least, is clearly defined.
he’s a very expensive (70 mil) winger.
we don’t play with wingers and he’s too expensive for us so it’s never gonna happen.
what are you waiting for
get Nico as soon as possible and also both the Stankovic brothers
Get rid of Barella Frattesi and Charanoglu as their performance has dropped enormously
invest in other players
and then the media say he’s a flop cause he can’t defend
will say**
Yea it will be funny if we do get him and put him as a wingback.
We will never buy him; his salary demands are so high that even EPL financial giants did not accept them.
